I love October. Some of the best weather happens in October. You finally get that transition from summer into fall during October. Even in my birth state of California, the evenings and mornings start to get a coolness to them, while the days stay nice and sunny. Here in Texas, I thought summer was never going to end... and yet now, I'm leaving for work in the morning and I'm feeling the crispness in the air. The humidity is starting to quiet down and the evenings are perfect for walking. Yes, it is still 80s and 90s during the day, but it's not the overbearing heat that makes you dread being outside anymore. October really does bring fall into play.

The other reason I love October is because it's my birthday month! To celebrate this awesome month, I'm going to be selling my patterns at 50% off! All you need to do is use the coupon code "october" when checking out. And, as an extra bonus, I will be releasing a free pattern in the middle of the month!

Welcome!

It's definitely starting to get into last second gift knitting crunch time!! One skein of @malabrigoyarn Caracol and an evening is all that's needed to work up a #tomodachihat !!
.
It looks great in both semi solids and variegated colors! 💗💖

My #carbethcardigan is turning out quite deliciously. I can't wait to be able to wear it, it's gonna be a happy cloud of colors to wear this winter.
.
Maybe not the best photo today, but I couldn't help sharing just how happy this is turning out! @knittedwit yarns.

Grabbed some lunch at a new ish Taiwanese bites place near my work. It has my current favorite black milk tea.
.
Normally I'm crazy picky and want to choose ice level and sweetness, but this one only comes in one option. While maybe too sweet, I've just learned to get it in moderation.

I accidentally ended up blocking this #tomodachihat a bit longer than the others, and I still love it!
.
It's funny, I'm not huge on orange very often, but I think this one may end up being my most worn version!
.
A variegated colorway ends up being super versatile because you know you can wear it with outfits of all those colors!

Needing a last minute gift? How about a hat you can knit up in a single evening?
.
Tomodachi is now available on Ravelry! You'll just need a skein of @malabrigoyarn Caracol, some US15 needles, and a few hours!
.
Tomodachi means "friends" in Japanese, and I named it such because you can whip these up fast enough to make one for all of your knit-worthy friends!
